To roll with this idea: soon the credits will include more names like Sol and Opus 5 and various pointy-haired bosses than names like Mike Little. That's not very encouraging eithe…

And similarly, humans are not Turing-complete either: none of us can even in theory sit down and store a trillion bits of information in their mind (or paper, whatever) without los…

> LLMs are text-prediction engines. They are not Artificial Intelligence, and shouldn’t not be treated in any form or fashion as if they possess intelligence. I agree that humans m…

...99% of applicants who apply through the standard route.

This is the difference between efficiency (that the author is aiming for) and effectiveness (that Bob has – solving the right problem and only that problem). The two are not measur…

This is an amazing game that I'm still playing after a week, no request for changes! Thanks a lot.

With a population of 12M and life expectancy of 80 years (give or take), probably not, as that needs ~400 newborns a day to maintain, and the birth rate is probably well below that…

> without which, these discoveries do not help much at advancing the field, At least the fact that frontier models are not optimized primarily on formal math reasoning is in itself…

The event in this case is a daily observation, so in the last 45 years there have been 16k events. Under Gaussian assumption, 3.5 sigma outliers in positive direction are 1 in ~4,0…

For completeness, the person who adjusted the thermostat in this case was also hired to get stuff done, and the front door was left unlocked. They still shouldn't have done it, but…

OP has many posts from years ago, with wildly differing language: https://roman.pt/posts/alembic-enums/

> If execution is everything, and frontier LLMs solve execution Steve Jobs didn't mean "writing good code" as "execution", he meant "making things that align with how people want t…

I'd also add a willingness to follow the (perceived) intent of the rules as opposed to gaming the letter of the rule. An experienced folk might say, "yeah it won't matter legally",…

Yes, it and the other three posts sound positively AI written. The first post on the blog is how OP uploaded a backdoored dataset to HuggingFace and left it there for 6 months – wh…

Why wouldn't one buy a second-hand refurbished MacBook Air M1 with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage for the same price? [1] I really don't see the advantages of getting a newer computer…

Maybe you wanted to visit Mexico and your dream was specifically about Cancún, but then you ended up in Veracruz and were like "oh well, it is Mexico after all, I'd rather be here …

I expect that a large portion of the actually – not supposedly – targeted demographic will still not care or know how to set up encrypted comms, and I guess the EP also expects the…

If Chat Control passes, then encryption will not be effortless and usable by the masses, that's the whole point. Basic encrypted chat will be on the level of Snowden trying to comm…

Even assuming good intent, that was extremely silly from them to donate their money away when they don't have anything to begin with. This either assumes that the community is wise…

I also found woodworking recently as a software engineer and it's incredibly rewarding. Both the tactile feeling of the activity, the idea of building something that _exists_ in ph…

I love how the last lines of the article read, > “I don’t think this could have happened in any country other than the U.S.,” Dr. Urnov said. > “We all said to each other, ‘This is…
